At the end of June at Automatica 2023, Fruitcore Robotics unveiled its new operating system with integrated AI copilot for Horst industrial robots, making a statement for the future of industrial automation. The digital robots from the manufacturer of intelligent robotics and automation solutions are the first that can be set up and controlled with ChatGPT support. The voice model acts as an intelligent assistant that answers questions and provides assistance in natural language and in real time. Fruitcore Robotics will be presenting its AI innovation at the upcoming Motek 2023. There will also be Solution Kits to discover, automation modules for production scenarios such as machine loading or parts separation.

"Artificial intelligence is making a significant contribution to more agile and flexible automation and will undoubtedly fundamentally change the automation landscape. We are proud to have pioneered the first GPT integration in industrial robotics," says Patrick Heimburger, Managing Director of Fruitcore Robotics. The AI-supported industrial robot is proving to be extremely helpful, especially for complex automation processes - both for robot experts and beginners. The AI Copilot not only facilitates the integration and control of robots and components, the innovation also has a positive impact on efficiency and time savings. This is a valuable contribution to increasing profitability, explains Heimburger.

AI Copilot: real-time help assistant for HORST industrial robots

The AI Copilot developed by Fruitcore on the basis of ChatGPT was trained with relevant assembly instructions, support content and software documentation from the Constance-based company. In order to guarantee users an outstanding user experience, the capabilities of the intelligent assistant are being continuously expanded. At Motek 2023, trade visitors can experience the AI co-pilot live at the trade fair stand and try it out for themselves.

In addition to the AI innovation, two other key players will be in the spotlight at the fruitcore robotics stand: the Solution Kit Part Separation, a CE-certified automation module for the flexible separation of bulk parts, and the latest Solution Kit Machine Tending, a CE-certified automation module for machine tending. The latter is based on the HORST1000, the latest member of the HORST robot family. The industrial robot scores with a payload of up to 8 kilograms, a reach of 1,018 millimetres and a three-dimensional workspace, making it ideal for loading and unloading any machine tool. All fruitcore robotics solution kits are tailored to specific production scenarios of industrial companies and are equipped with all the components required for the respective application. Robots, components and existing industrial processes are integrated and controlled via the interface of the new horstOS operating system as a single point of contact, which allows users to centrally manage all components integrated in the overall system, such as grippers, camera systems and safety systems. The assistance function of the AI copilot also contributes to a significant simplification of human-robot interaction.
